[aaron_wade]

my beautiful kodak7285 color reversal film will be here tomorrow! by the way, some reps at kodak are rude!

 

[TC]

Oh man, I bet you can't wait to rip it out of the canister and just stare at it's beauty.

:happy:

 

[aaron_wade]

actually im sticking it in the refrigerator. hehe

 

[Terry_Lasater]

Yeah, be sure to open up the cans and inspect the film for any defects prior to shooting. :cheesy: heh heh...

Aaron, don't listen to them. Go into a totally dark room, then open the can and aim a little flashlight in there to see if everything's ok.rogar-Evil(DBG):

 

[Justin_Kirch]

i thought it was best to look at unused film under direct sunlight?

 

[D_and_G]

What are you going to shoot it with ?

 

[aaron_wade]

oh it better not be nothing wrong w/ it! its new. no recans/ shortends.

shooting w/ a aaton ltr

 

[TC]

Speaking of Aaton, you know what camera I recently fell in love with? The A-Minima. Aside from the Arricam 416 it has to be one of the prettiest S16's out there.

 

[aaron_wade]

yeah the arricam 416 is nice. speaking of nice, today is the day. i have 400' mags sitting in the frig. hehe.

 

[TC]

Can't wait till I can shoot some super16!

How much did all the stock cost you?

 

[aaron_wade]

i only bought 800' of 7285. roughly $220 give or take. thats only 22 minutes of shooting though.

*student discount= 30% off (kodak)

 

[oneinfiniteloop]

How much do you estimate processing will cost? Also, how strict were they on credentials to get that student program package? I go a local community college and take film related courses, but they don't have an official film program there like Kodak requires.

 

[aaron_wade]

depending on how much film your getting processed. about $.14/ft. give or take. then you have to go through telecine and find a colorist. oh yeah, outputing to whatever format your gonna edit with. kind of hard to find places that will process color reversal film. atleast in dallas it is. so im shipping off to IL to get it processed.

they tell you they need a official form. but just fax your class schedule and/or print out of your tuition cost and a picture of your student id. thats what i did, and i go to a community college.
